Dolphins Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Dolphins

Rating: 5.0


He regretted he cannot send me back in the world as a man,
I made so much ugly the earth with my sins,
The libel of my sins is nothing but to imprison my soul in an animal,
However, I had done a few good deeds,
For that He rewarded my soul to choose an animal,
And to go back to the earth and serve the humans,
With no hesitation and no refrain, I said, My Lord!
I would opt to go to my mother's womb,
As a friendly dolphin!
You must be surprised as to how I'm writing a poem?
I let you know I have a friend whose name is Akhtar,
He understands my language and we talk often,
I narrated the story to my lovely friend,
He was caught by me watching bikini girls,
On the shore of a sea with a long telescope,
I shouted at him you naughty old man,
Aren't you ashamed of this ugly act?
And that, too, with a long beard so white,
Open your mouth let me count your teeth,
Seventeen out thirty two have gone to the hell,
And two more are about to go.

Look at me my friend,
I was just like you,
And I am busy in the sea for saving lives of thousand humans,
Although I am a small, toothed whale,
With a human heart and human intelligence,
I am amusing the children and I save the lives of the drowning sailors,
When the thousand children will pray for me,
And the thousand sailors will pay thanks to me,
That will be last day of paying the libel,
On the day being turned in a shining light,
I shall be merged in the source,
For love and peace,
My friend I love you,
You are seventy now,
Throw the telescope I shall catch it,
And gift it to a child, he is too poor,
He cannot purchase this costly telescope!
